Subject: Re: [office-comment] OpenFormula: Excel FLOOR Function


Dennis E. Hamilton:
> FLOOR(x) = -CEILING(-x)

True. What I _meant_ was that there was no built-in operation
to do the mathematical FLOOR operation. After all,

TAN(x) = SIN(x)/COS(x)

But people would rightly object if we only had SIN and COS.

We should try to make it _easy_ for users to express
common cases, using the functions they prefer to use.
